In the 17 years since Sophie Ellis-Bextor signed to Mercury Records as
the 18-year-old frontwoman of indie darlings theaudience, the singer has
experienced some incredible moments. Following theaudience's Top 40
success and NME acclaim, Sophie made her first solo appearance in a
collaboration with Italian dance DJ, Spiller. That song, Groovejet (If
This Ain't Love) shot to Number One around the world and became one of
the UK's most-played songs of the decade. Sophie built on that success
with her debut solo single proper, the smouldering Murder On The
Dancefloor, which became another global smash, backed by a striking
video, the first of many collaborations with Sophie Muller. The song was
quickly followed by Sophie's two-million-selling debut album, Read My
Lips, and a string of further chart hits, including Music Gets The Best
Of Me, Get Over You, Catch You and her 2010 collaboration with Armin Van
Buuren, Not Giving Up On Love. Continuing her run of successful
collaborations with dance artists, Sophie reached Number 12 in the UK
charts with her soaring single with the Freemasons, Heartbreak Make Me A
Dancer. She then found herself back in the Top 20 with Bittersweet, the
glorious lead track from her fourth album, Make A Scene, an album which
helped cement her position as a global success story. On January 20, 2014
Sophie will release her fifth album, Wanderlust, a record co-written and
produced by acclaimed singer-songwriter Ed Harcourt and recorded in
just two weeks with a tightly-knit group of musician friends. The record
sees the 34-year-old Sophie blossoming into an accomplished
singer-songwriter, with its 11 powerfully understated songs showcasing a
newfound maturity, warmth and songcraft. Wanderlust will be preceded by
the single release of one of its standout tracks, Young Blood, a
life-affirming, piano-driven testament to true love. That song, which
comes accompanied by another of Muller's trademark videos, marks the
beginning of a glorious new chapter in her career.
